;;; Commentary:

;; An implementation of information caching for remote files.

;; Each connection, identified by a vector [method user host
;; localname] or by a process, has a unique cache. We distinguish 3
;; kind of caches, depending on the key:
;;
;; - localname is NIL.  This are reusable properties.  Examples:
;;   "remote-shell" identifies the POSIX shell to be called on the
;;   remote host, or "perl" is the command to be called on the remote
;;   host, when starting a Perl script.  These properties are saved in
;;   the file `tramp-persistency-file-name'.
;;
;; - localname is a string.  This are temporary properties, which are
;;   related to the file localname is referring to.  Examples:
;;   "file-exists-p" is t or nile, depending on the file existence, or
;;   "file-attributes" caches the result of the function
;;  `file-attributes'.
;;
;; - The key is a process.  This are temporary properties related to
;;   an open connection.  Examples: "scripts" keeps shell script
;;   definitions already sent to the remote shell, "last-cmd-time" is
;;   the time stamp a command has been sent to the remote process.
